Product Description

If you're the hard-training bodybuilder you ought to be, you expend more energy, burn more calories, and -- most important of all -- require extra nutrients to build up your muscle and strength. Success in bodybuilding is 85 percent nutrition; all the training in the world won't give you the mass you want if you're not eating the right food at the right time. The tailor-made nutrition guide for people who pump iron, Rock Hard! can help you reach your ultimate training goal -- whether it's to win a competition, or simply be the best you can be in your everyday life.

1.0 out of 5 stars Out of date,, 30 Aug 2003

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Rock Hard (Paperback)

Out of date. Out of date. Out of date. This book was published in 1987 with no updates. Whey, as the primary protein supplement didnt even exist at the time. Half the book is recipes. If thats what your looking for then by all means purchase it. If your looking for a diet strategy based current knowledge then look elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Strong Title From a Well-Informed Author, 21 April 2003

By Bruce Gilliz - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Rock Hard (Paperback)

Bob Kennedy has some real background experience on this topic as he has been a part of the bodybuilding scene for decades. This book is the first title I have bought that has been authored by Bob Kennedy, who clearly demonstrated to me that he is competent in the area of bodybuilding nutrition.
Perhaps most appealing, for me, was the simple recipes available to the layperson who doesn't want to spend a lot of time hunting around health food stores for the best foods. Also, straight forward nutrition concepts are tossed around that gave me more confidence in picking good food choices. An encore for Bob Kennedy's Rock Hard!

5.0 out of 5 stars Eating with a bodybuilding purpose., 20 July 1998

By Ghan5@aol.com - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Rock Hard (Paperback)

This book is a must for anyone from beginer to expert. All you ever wanted to know about bodybuildning nutrition from bulking up to cutting down. The recipies are simple and use everyday ingredients you don't need a charge card at Mrs. Gooches to afford. The one-dish main meals are a heaven send as are the protein shake recipies. If you find this book, buy it!!!
